Dans l'Amérique des années 1940, une génération de jeunes écrivains, artistes et marginaux rêve de littérature, de liberté, d'expériences et de voyages.Ils vont devenir la Beat Generation.Et parmi eux, un homme va devenir leur symbole : Jack Kerouac.En 1957, il publie Sur la route, un roman qui devient rapidement l'emblème de toute une génération. Mais derrière l'écrivain célébré se cache un homme fragile, marqué très jeune par la mort de son frère, partagé entre son amour de la littérature et son goût pour les excès.De Lowell à New York, de San Francisco au Mexique, de Tanger à Paris et jusqu'à Big Sur, Kerouac passe sa vie sur les routes.Dans cet épisode de La Petite Histoire, on revient sur la vie mouvementée de celui que ses proches surnommaient le « vagabond céleste » : ses voyages, ses rencontres avec Neal Cassady, William Burroughs et les autres écrivains de la Beat Generation, sa passion pour le jazz, mais aussi les excès qui finiront par le rattraper.Une vie de liberté, de création, d'alcool, de drogues, de solitude et de voyages.Une vie qui ressemble finalement beaucoup à ses livres.

How Do I Figure Out What I Actually Want?

You can't answer "what do I actually want?" by looking inward harder, because most desire isn't hidden — it's borrowed. In this episode, Brett Ingram makes the case that a lot of what feels like your deepest wanting was actually absorbed from the people around you, and that the brain's craving for something and its enjoyment of having it run on two separate systems that routinely disagree. He offers a three-question "wanting audit" — where a want came from, whether you'd like having it or just getting it, and whether you'd still want it in private — for telling a genuine desire from a borrowed one before you spend years chasing it. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why "look inward and follow your heart" doesn't work — and why desire is mostly formed, not found, built out of what you were exposed to, praised for, and surrounded by René Girard's concept of mimetic desire: why so much of what you want, you caught from other people rather than generated yourself Kent Berridge's discovery that wanting and liking run on two different brain systems — and why the loudest craving is often the least reliable signal The three-question "Wanting Audit" for testing whether a specific desire is actually yours: the origin question, the liking question, and the private question Why intrinsic goals (growth, relationships, contribution) tend to hold up better over a life than extrinsic ones (status, image, wealth) — and why that finding is correlational, not a verdict on ambition itself The difference between reflection and rumination, and why thinking harder about what you want usually just generates heat, not light A simple one-week practice — the one-want audit and a daily "aliveness" note — for catching the wants you couldn't have found by sitting still Episode Timestamps [0:00] Introduction — the question that sounds simple and isn't [2:00] Why this hits hardest for people who are good at getting what they want [3:00] The trap in "figure out what you want" — desire isn't buried treasure [4:00] Why "look inward and follow your heart" doesn't work [6:00] Borrowed desire: René Girard and mimetic desire [9:00] Wanting isn't liking: Kent Berridge's two systems in the brain [12:00] The Wanting Audit — three tests, starting with the origin question [13:00] Test two: do you want to have it, or just to get it? [15:00] Test three: would you still want it if no one knew? [16:00] What the research says: intrinsic vs. extrinsic goals [18:00] The limit of thinking your way there — and the antidote [20:00] This week's practice: the one-want audit and the aliveness log [22:00] Rosebud, and the loudest want is rarely the truest one Episode Summary There's a version of "figure out what you want" that sounds like buried treasure — dig deep enough into yourself and the true answer will surface. Brett Ingram opens this episode by rejecting that model outright. The core claim: desire isn't mostly found, it's formed — built over time out of what you were exposed to, what you were praised for, and who you were standing next to when a want first showed up. If that's true, then sitting still and asking "but what do I really want?" on repeat won't get you anywhere. As Brett puts it, that kind of looping introspection means "all that's gonna do is generate heat. It's not gonna generate light." The first idea Brett builds the episode around is French philosopher René Girard's concept of mimetic desire — the claim that we mostly want things because other people want them, not because of the qualities of the thing itself. We look around to see what's worth wanting, and then we want that. It's why a neighborhood suddenly appeals once a friend moves there, or a career milestone starts to matter only after someone your age hits it first. Girard's point, Brett stresses, isn't a moral indictment — "it's not that you're shallow or a follower... The failure is only in never noticing it's happening." Borrowed desire isn't automatically bad; some of it fits beautifully. The problem is chasing a borrowed want for a decade while assuming it's the deepest expression of who you are. The second idea comes from neuroscientist Kent Berridge's decades of research at the University of Michigan: wanting and liking are two separate systems in the brain. Wanting — the craving, the pursuit — runs largely on dopamine. Liking — the actual pleasure once you have the thing — runs on a smaller, more fragile system, and the two can come apart completely. That's the mechanism behind the flat, quiet letdown after finally getting something you were sure about. "The loudest want is not the truest want," Brett says, and using raw craving as your guide to what you want will steer you straight toward the things you'll like least once you have them. From these two ideas, Brett builds a practical tool: the Wanting Audit, three questions to run on any specific want. The origin question — where did this come from, and who did I first see wanting it? The liking question — do I want to have this, or just to get it? (Imagine the ordinary Wednesday six months later, not the moment of arrival.) And the private question — would I still want this if no one ever knew I had it? None of the three deliver a clean verdict, but together they show where a want came from and whether it's likely to satisfy. The pattern lines up with research from psychologists Tim Kasser and Richard Ryan on intrinsic versus extrinsic goals: people who organize their lives disproportionately around extrinsic goals — wealth, status, image — tend to report lower wellbeing, even when they get what they wanted. The finding is correlational, and Brett is careful to say ambition itself isn't the villain; the wants worth keeping tend to have an intrinsic core, even when they wear an extrinsic coat. Brett also pushes back on his own framework: some wants can't be found by analysis at all. They only reveal themselves through action — small, cheap, reversible experiments, followed by honest noticing of what you actually felt, not what you predicted. That's the difference between reflection and rumination, and it connects directly to the difference between self-knowledge and self-improvement — the deeper terrain this episode sits inside. The homework is simple: run the Wanting Audit on one costly want this week, and keep a running note of the moments you felt genuinely alive, then compare the two lists. Closing with the "Rosebud" ending of Citizen Kane, Brett leaves listeners with the line the whole episode turns on: "You don't have to figure out everything you want today. You just have to stop mistaking a borrowed want for a life." Resources Mentioned René Girard's mimetic desire theory — the idea that we largely want things because other people want them — Britannica: "What is mimetic desire according to René Girard?" Kent Berridge's "wanting vs. liking" research, University of Michigan — the neuroscience showing craving and enjoyment run on separate brain systems — Berridge Lab: Neuroscience of Liking and Wanting Tim Kasser & Richard Ryan's research on intrinsic vs. extrinsic goals — the correlational link between extrinsic-goal-focused living and lower wellbeing — Kasser, "Materialistic Values and Goals," Annual Review of Psychology (2016) Citizen Kane (1941 film) — referenced for the "Rosebud" ending and the idea of getting everything you wanted and finding out it was never really yours Frequently Asked Questions How do I figure out what I actually want in life? Run any specific want through three tests instead of trying to think your way to an answer: where it came from and who you first saw wanting it, whether you'd enjoy having it and not just getting it, and whether you'd still want it if no one ever knew. Wants that survive all three are far more likely to be genuinely yours. Why don't I know what I want anymore? Because desire is mostly formed, not found — built out of what you were exposed to, praised for, and surrounded by — so there usually isn't a single "true" want hiding inside you waiting to be uncovered. What feels like confusion is often a list that's half yours and half absorbed from other people, with no way yet to tell them apart. What is mimetic desire, and why does it matter for figuring out what I want? Mimetic desire is philosopher René Girard's idea that we largely want things because other people want them, not because of the qualities of the thing itself. A lot of what feels like a personal desire is actually a social signal picked up from a peer, a rival, or a culture — which isn't a character flaw, just how humans learn what to value in the first place. What's the difference between wanting something and liking it? Neuroscientist Kent Berridge found that wanting (the craving, the pursuit) and liking (the pleasure once you have it) run on two different, separable systems in the brain. That's why a desire can feel intensely urgent and still deliver almost no satisfaction once you get the thing — the wanting system can fire hard even when the liking system barely responds. Why do I get what I want and still feel unsatisfied? Because the intensity of a craving tells you almost nothing about how much you'll actually enjoy having the thing once you do — that's the wanting/liking gap. It's also often a sign the want was extrinsic (status, image, being seen) rather than intrinsic, and research shows extrinsically-organized goals tend to satisfy the least even when achieved. What is the "Wanting Audit" from this episode? It's a three-question test for any want you're carrying: the origin question (where did this come from, who did I first see wanting it), the liking question (do I want to have it, or just to get it), and the private question (would I still want it if no one ever knew I had it). It won't produce a clean yes or no, but it shows where a want came from and whether it's likely to satisfy you. Is it bad that a lot of my desires are borrowed from other people? No — Brett is explicit that borrowed doesn't automatically mean bad, and mimetic wanting is simply how humans learn what to value. Some desires you catch from other people fit you beautifully. The problem is only when you can't tell the difference and spend years chasing a borrowed want assuming it's the deepest expression of who you are.

This week, Jesus encounters a persistent Canaanite woman who refuses to take no for an answer. Peter Walsh and Elizabeth Garnsey wrestle with a provocative question: Does this woman learn something from Jesus, or might Jesus and his disciples learn something from her? Along the way, they explore what comes from the heart, the boundaries we draw around God's mercy, and the surprising grace of having our point of view conquered by love.Questions for ReflectionThemes & ApplicationThe Canaanite woman refuses to accept the boundaries that seem to determine who deserves Jesus' attention and mercy. Who are the people today whom religious communities are still tempted to keep outside the boundaries of belonging?Peter and Elizabeth offer different interpretations of Jesus' encounter with the Canaanite woman: is Jesus himself being changed, or is he intentionally creating a moment that will change his disciples? What difference does each interpretation make for how we understand Jesus?The episode contrasts the Pharisees, who are offended by Jesus, with the outsider who persistently seeks him. What might this suggest about the relationship between religious certainty and openness to encountering God in unexpected places? Personal Reflection QuestionsPeter asks, “How many times do we grow because our point of view gets conquered?” When has changing your mind actually been an important part of your spiritual growth? The Canaanite woman persists through silence, rejection, and insult. When have you had to persist in asking for something that mattered deeply to you?Jesus teaches that defilement comes from the heart rather than external observance. What attitudes or reactions within yourself are hardest for you to examine honestly?Broader Spiritual ConsiderationsWhat does it mean for Christian faith if Scripture gives us a Jesus who can appear challenging, harsh, or even capable of learning rather than the “airbrushed Jesus” Peter describes? Jesus repeatedly returns to Hosea's declaration, “I desire mercy, not sacrifice.” What would change if mercy, rather than correctness, became one of our primary measures of faithfulness?The episode ends with the idea of allowing ourselves to be “conquered by love.” What might that look like not simply as an individual spiritual practice, but as a way for communities and churches to live?References & ResourcesBooks & ThinkersRené Girard, I See Satan Fall Like LightningPlaces & ArtSt. Peter's Church, Jaffa — Peter references the artwork behind the altar depicting Peter's vision of the sheet descending from heaven in Acts 10.VocabularyKynárion (κυνάριον) — The Greek word translated as “dogs” in Matthew 15:26–27. It is a diminutive form of the Greek word for dog and can refer to a small or household dog. Importantly, as Peter and Elizabeth note, the comparison remains belittling regardless of the nuance. Skandalízō (σκανδαλίζω) — The Greek verb behind language of being “offended” or “caused to stumble.” Peter and Elizabeth connect it with Matthew's recurring theme of “scandal” and offense, particularly the disciples' warning that the Pharisees were offended by Jesus' teaching. Mimetic Desire — A concept associated with René Girard describing the way human beings learn what to desire through others, which can produce rivalry and competition. Elizabeth connects Girard's analysis of coveting with Jesus' insistence that destructive behavior ultimately originates in the desires of the heart.ClothingRob's “Be Kind” T-shirt, The Happy GiversLearn more about St. Mark's at https://www.stmarksnewcanaan.org

A pair of silk stockings, mended again and again below the ankle, set Emily Whitted on the path of discovery that has led her through archives and museums of early American history. The stockings belonged to Philadelphia's Stephen Girard, who was one of the wealthiest men in America. Museum records didn't mention the mends, though the socks had been repaired several times, making them as invisible to historians examining records as anyone Girard met on the street. Textiles were valuable in the early 19th century, and even a wealthy man wore stockings mended by one of the women of his household. Mending, darning, and repair became the subject of Emily's doctoral thesis at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, a project she has nearly completed. Her research into mending has led her to investigate how repaired clothing could identify a person trying to self-emancipate, how well repaired clothing could indicate moral character, and how groups of men repaired not only their belongings but also sails in maritime life. Emily was drawn into the history of textiles by her interest in the role of cloth in women's lives. With a background in public history (presenting information about the past to non-specialists), she recently curated an exhibition at the Webb Deane Stevens Museum in Connecticut about the variety of samplers that early American girls stitched. Although we generally think of samplers as purely decorative showpieces, darning samplers demonstrated practical skill in mending, too. As a badge of creativity and conservation, mending has recently taken center stage, with visible mending as a badge of honor. Emily Whitted's historical research shows just how much we have in common not only with the girls who stitched samplers but also the invisible hands that repaired the cloth of early Americans.

Foi assim com Jean Valjean, foi assim tantas vezes na política, no futebol, nas empresas e agora nas redes sociais. A pessoa erra, mas o erro vira identidade. Neste Cafezinho, parto de René Girard e da ideia do bode expiatório para perguntar: quando apontamos o dedo, estamos buscando justiça ou apenas alívio? Um convite para ouvir o Café Brasil 1036 – O Bode Expiatório, e desconfiar das certezas fáceis da multidão. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Um homem rouba um pão e passa o resto da vida carregando um rótulo. A partir dessa história de "Os Miseráveis", este episódio mergulha na teoria de René Girard para mostrar como sociedades em crise escolhem bodes expiatórios para aliviar suas tensões. De Jean Valjean a Rivellino, de Wilson Simonal a Bolsonaro, passando pelas redes sociais e pela política, uma reflexão sobre nossa necessidade de encontrar culpados e o risco de transformar pessoas em símbolos de problemas muito maiores do que elas.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Three breweries make their Malt Couture debut as four old world beer styles clash in the Power Rankings. Beers from Sapwood Cellars Brewery, Noble Beast Brewing Co., CLAG Brewing Co., and Phase Three Brewing will face off to see who produces a brew worthy of eras past. In the Beer News, the Japanese Sharp Pour starts to find its way into US taprooms, an Uptappd check in almost leads to an international incident, and Miller High Life makes an attempt at charity but an ulterior motive gets dug up.  Thanks to Human Robot Brewery for sponsoring this episode. Follow them on IG @HumanRobotBeer. If you're in the Philadelphia area, hit up their original Kensington taproom or check out their other taprooms in South Philly, Jenkintown, Girard, and their newest taproom, a trading card shop/taproom called Doubles, in New Hope. Get a taste of them at the Wavy Days Beer Fest in Portland, ME and The Veil's Forever Summer Beer Fest in Richmond, VA.  For more info about colon cancer and to help support the fight against it check out the Colon Cancer Foundation.  Head to our Patreon for weekly exclusive content.
